I used to have all my handys on surviver stocks, not anymore. Only one now. My 223, 24", bull barrel. I have two store arms. One has a bipod permanently installed, and one plain. I use my 12g on this also, SB2. When mounted up with the 12g all the storage is used. I have three 12g shells in the store arm. 1 00 buck, one slug, and one 7-1/2 field. In the stock storage, I have my 6" 41 mag rifled insert and 10 rounds of high speed ammo. It also wears a large limbsaver in this configuration. The weight helps with the stout recoil also. This barrel is DT with muzzleloader fire sights. It is my turkey gun.

The cavity in the survivor stock has two cavities separated by a partition. The larger cavity is aprox. 1" wide by 2" long by 6 3/4" deep.  The smaller cavity is 1" x 1" x 6.75" deep. The partititon is 5.5" long from the bottom of the cavity to its top which leaves a full space in the stock near the buttpad of 3 1/4"L x 1"W x 1.25"D.
Depending on caliber you could store a lot of rounds in there along with fish line/hooks/sinkers, rolled up space blanket, matches, small compass, etc. Mine is on a 357 Magnum rifle so it will hold a lot of ammo.
The forend has 3 compartments that are:  Forward compartment 2"L x 1"W x 7/8"D, Middle Compartment 3.25"L x 1"W x 5/8" deep at the barrel mount recess to 7/8" at the forward partition, Rear compartment 2 7/8"L x 1"W x 5/8"(barrel recess)-7/8" at rear channel.
I can get 21rds of 357 ammo plus room for fish hooks with line wrapped around them and a small compass in there plus you could probably stuff some paper/cotton/kleenex and or matches in there for kindling and to reduce or eliminate rattle in the forend alone.

The partition in the stock is held in place by friction.   It comes out fairly  easy or can be moved to a different position.
